Happy Halloween!!

May the ghosts, the goblins and the wee creatures of the night give you scary delights. 

An attachment came in yesterday with English Pub signs to cheer us up.   A bit of Guinness could do that or is this the time of year that black dregs beer comes to the table.    That one about buying one beer for the price of two reminds me Fred Meyer grocery prices.  You know the one buy a roast for so much and get one free, but  you pay twice the price for the first one.  There are some folks that think we do not have a brain in our head.    Be aware.   I'm on my soap box about the vegetables as I had to throw away a sweet potato and an onion this week.  Guess I will have to think about not shopping weekly.  I will have to go two or three times a week and just choose what items I need for that day.    Such waste and it is never cheap, high priced when they have fresh vegetables from a dollar ninety nine a pound to two dollars and forty nine cents a pound.  We can't afford a piece of Hubbard squash any more.    Yesterday we took a ride over to Safeway in Crescent City and the prices were amazing, sure gives our Rays store a run for its money.   No Bell seasoning but they did have plain Sage for four dollars;  sheesh . . .  we will have to form a neighborhood exchange day when we plan our Thanksgiving dinner and share the seasonings.   Some of my tales never change.   I feel like I have told this tale a dozen times and I probably have.   I am outraged  to think that we are all taken advantage of.  Paying the price for quality has never been a problem.  Paying the price for a gleaner's market is another tale in itself.    I am afraid it is not going to get better after the months of drought in the midlands this year.   Didn't someone once say the experts were coming out with a pill we could take to feed ourselves.  Better not as we probably couldn't afford the pill.   So on to bigger and better things....Halloween...today, the last day of October, 2014.  A rainy day here so the little ghosts and goblins may head into the events in town.   I found a good hiding place for some of the little chocolate bars I bought for treats.  Now, all I have to do is find it.   

So dress up and knock on a neighbor's door.   Be a spook with a grin and a hug and share some of that candy.   Hugs to all.
